I have one shell script I want to run that remotely in POD, how I can do that?
oc exec build-core-1-p4fr4 -- df -kh / <--- I want to use my script
any way to do this remotely, like we do
oc exec build-core-1-p4fr4 -- cat >> text << shell.sh <---- something like this
I checked oc rsh but didn't find anything specific there.
You can try the following command using -i option that allows to pass stdin to the container.
$ oc exec -i your_pod_name -- /bin/bash -s <<EOF
#!/bin/bash
date > /tmp/time
EOF
$ oc exec your_pod_name -- cat /tmp/time

Use oc exec -i to take script from stdin.
oc exec -i your_pod_name -- bash -s < your_script.sh

I have a shell script my-script.sh like:
#!/bin/bash
while true; do
echo '1'
done
I can deploy a bash pod in Kubernetes like:
kubectl run my-shell --rm -it --image bash -- bash
Now, I want to execute the script on bash. How can I pass my-script.sh as input to bash? Something like
kubectl run my-shell --rm -it --image bash -- /bin/bash -c < my-script.sh
Just drop the -t to kubectl run (because you're reading from stdin, not a terminal) and the -c from bash (because you're passing the script on stdin, not as an argument):
$ kubectl run my-shell --rm -i --image docker.io/bash -- bash < my-script.sh
If you don't see a command prompt, try pressing enter.

I want to run a local script within Kubernetes pod and then set the output result to a linux variable
Here is what I tried:
# if I directly run -c "netstat -pnt |grep ssh", I get output assigned to $result:
cat check_tcp_conn.sh
#!/bin/bash
result=$(kubectl exec -ti <pod_name> -- /bin/bash -c "netstat -pnt |grep ssh")
echo "result is $result"
What I want is something like this:
#script to be called:
cat netstat_tcp_conn.sh
#!/bin/bash
netstat -pnt |grep ssh
#script to call netstat_tcp_conn.sh:
cat check_tcp_conn.sh
#!/bin/bash
result=$(kubectl exec -ti <pod_name> --
/bin/bash -c "./netstat_tcp_conn.sh)
echo "result is $result
the result showed result is /bin/bash: ./netstat_tcp_conn.sh: No such file or directory.
How can I let Kubernetes pod execute netstat_tcp_conn.sh which is at my local machine?
You can use following command to execute your script in your pod:
kubectl exec POD -- /bin/sh -c "`cat netstat_tcp_conn.sh`"
You can copy local files into pod using kubectl command like kubectl cp /tmp/foo :/tmp/
Then you can change its permission and make it executable and run it using kubectl exec.
I have the following command that works fine and prints foo before returning:
docker exec -i <id> /bin/sh < echo "echo 'foo'"
I want to direct multiple commands into the container with one pipe, for example echo 'foo' and ls /. I have tried the following:
This fails because it runs the commands on the host and pipes the output into the container:
{
echo "foo"
ls /
} | docker exec -i <id> /bin/sh
This fails because it has bad syntax. It also runs on the host:
{
echo "foo"
ls /
} | docker exec -i <id> /bin/sh
This one fails, but I would like to not use an array of strings anyway:
for COMMAND in 'echo "foo"' 'ls /'
do
docker exec -i <id> /bin/sh < echo $COMMAND
done
I've also tried several other methods like piping commands into tee or echo but haven't had any luck. If you would like to know why I want to do this seemingly ridiculous thing, it's because:
This is a short script that I would like to keep all in one place
I would like to use syntax highlighting, so I don't want to store it all in a list of strings
The container has the programs the script should run and the host does not
This is an automatic process that I would like to trigger with crontab on the host
You can run a group of commands in the below fashion
docker exec -i <id> /bin/sh -c 'echo "foo"; ls -l'
OR
docker exec -i 996eee5d121d /bin/sh -c 'echo 'foo'; ls -l'
OR
docker exec -i 996eee5d121d /bin/sh -c 'echo foo; ls -l'
If you want to run more than 2 commands, just append ; after each command like
docker exec -i 996eee5d121d /bin/sh -c 'echo "foo"; ls -l; ls -a'
Use a here document.
docker run -i --rm alpine /bin/sh <<EOF
echo abc
ls /
EOF
Note the difference between quoted and unquoted here document delimiter.
docker exec -i <id> /bin/sh < echo "echo 'foo'"
I think you meant to do:
docker exec -i <id> /bin/sh < <(echo "echo 'foo'")
which is just the same as:
docker exec -i <id> /bin/sh <<<"echo 'foo'"
#edit There is a cool little trick. The idea is to pipe the script itself except first lines to another subprocess, it's sometimes used by installer scripts:
#!/bin/sh
# output this script except first 4 lines to docker
tail -n+5 "$0" | docker run -i --rm alpine /bin/sh -x
exit # we exit original script
#!/bin/sh
# inside docker now
echo abc
ls /
Execution:
$ bash -x ./script.sh
+ tail -n+5 ./script.sh
+ docker run -i --rm alpine /bin/sh -x
+ echo abc
+ ls /
abc
bin
...
var
+ exit
In a similar fashion you could use sed or another parsing tool to extract the only the relevant part between some marks for example.
I found a gist that explained how to pipe commands into docker exec:
echo "echo foo" | docker exec -i <id> /bin/sh -
Now we need a way to pipe multiple commands. Command groups won't work because they run on the host and semicolon separated commands can get messy. I thought of writing a function and getting just its body, it turns out you can do that with a simple declare and sed call.
You can combine all these pieces to pipe a command into the container:
function func {
echo "foo"
ls /
}
declare -f func | sed '1,2d;$d' | docker exec -i <id> /bin/bash -
Syntax highlighting still works in the function and it is easy to read.
If you want to use environment variables that are on the host in the container you have to list them manually in docker exec like so:
... | docker exec -i -e VAR=$VAR <id> /bin/bash -
Edit: I'm leaving this here as a possible solution, but the accepted answer is the proper solution I am using.
my goal is to execute a script once on a permanently running pod in kubernetes. The pod is called busybox-<SOME_ID> and finds itself in the namespace default.Therefore, I wrote this script - called scan-one-pod.sh:
#!/bin/bash
export MASTER_IP=192.168.56.102
export SCRIPT_NAME=script.sh
export POD_NAMESPACE=default
export POD_NAME=busybox
echo "echo HALLO" | ssh ubuntu#$MASTER_IP
export POD_ID=$(kubectl get po | grep busybox | sed -n '1p'|awk '{print $1}')
kubectl cp $SCRIPT_NAME $POD_NAMESPACE/$POD_ID:.
kubectl exec $POD_ID -- chmod +x $SCRIPT_NAME
export CONTAINER_ID=$(kubectl describe pod busybox | grep 'Container ID' | sed -n '1p'|awk '{print $3}')
ssh -t ubuntu#$MASTER_IP "sudo docker exec -u root $CONTAINER_ID -- ./script.sh"
The referred script script.sh has the following content:
$ kubectl exec $POD_ID -- cat script.sh
#!/bin/bash
echo "test" >> test
cp test test-is-working
However, it is not possible to run the script on the pod:
the files test and test-is-working are not created
the script scan-one-pod.sh returns just EOF:
$ ./scan-one-pod.sh
Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.

EOF
Connection to 192.168.56.102 closed.
If I execute the docker-command directly, remote on my kubernetes-controller, I get the same message of EOF:
ubuntu#controller:~$ export CONTAINER_ID=$(kubectl describe pod busybox | grep 'Container ID' | sed -n '1p'|awk '{print $3}')
ubuntu#controller:~$ sudo docker exec -u root $CONTAINER_ID ./script.sh
EOF
If I execute it from my local workstation via kubectl exec I get this error:
$ kubectl exec $POD_ID ./script.sh
rpc error: code = 13 desc = invalid header field value "oci runtime error: exec failed: container_linux.go:247: starting container process caused \"no such file or directory\"\n"
I don't know, which missing file they are referring to, but the script.sh-file is present and the busybox-pod seems to be running:
$ kubectl exec $POD_ID ls script.sh
script.sh
$ kubectl get po busybox-6bdf9b5bbc-4skds
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
busybox-6bdf9b5bbc-4skds 1/1 Running 10 12d
Question: As far as I know, EOF means End-Of-File. End of which file would be important for me to know, and why is that a problem?
Thanks in advance, any help is appreciated :)
This works:
# echo 1 and exit:
$ docker run -i -t image /bin/bash -c "echo 1"
1
# exit
# echo 1 and return shell in docker container:
$ docker run -i -t image /bin/bash -c "echo 1; /bin/bash"
1
root#4c064f2554de:/#
Question: How could I source a file into the shell? (this does not work)
$ docker run -i -t image /bin/bash -c "source <(curl -Ls git.io/apeepg) && /bin/bash"
# content from http://git.io/apeepg is sourced and shell is returned
root#4c064f2554de:/#
In my case, I use RUN source command (which will run using /bin/bash) in a Dockerfile to install nvm for node.js
Here is an example.
FROM ubuntu:14.04
RUN rm /bin/sh && ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh
...
...
RUN source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh && nvm install 0.11.14
I wanted something similar, and expanding a bit on your idea, came up with the following:
docker run -ti --rm ubuntu \
bash -c 'exec /bin/bash --rcfile /dev/fd/1001 \
1002<&0 \
<<<$(echo PS1=it_worked: ) \
1001<&0 \
0<&1002'
--rcfile /dev/fd/1001 will use that file descriptor's contents instead of .bashrc
1002<&0 saves stdin
<<<$(echo PS1=it_worked: ) puts PS1=it_worked: on stdin
1001<&0 moves this stdin to fd 1001, which we use as rcfile
0<&1002 restores the stdin that we saved initially
You can use .bashrc in interactive containers:
RUN curl -O git.io/apeepg.sh && \
echo 'source apeepg.sh' >> ~/.bashrc
Then just run as usual with docker run -it --rm some/image bash.
Note that this will only work with interactive containers.
I don't think you can do this, at least not right now. What you could do is modify your image, and add the file you want to source, like so:
FROM image
ADD my-file /my-file
RUN ["source", "/my-file", "&&", "/bin/bash"]
